  • Historic Third Ward
    Approximate boundaries: N-E. Clybourn St; S-E. Erie St; E-Lake Michigan; W-Milwaukee River DOWNTOWNHistoric Third Ward NEIGHBORHOOD DESCRIPTION A high proportion of blocks in the Third Ward border a waterway. On the east is Lake Michigan. The Milwaukee River also runs through the Ward and connects to the Menomonee River at the western section of the neighborhood. The area has a lovely Riverwalk. Most of the buildings are massive brick structures. Many of these had been warehouses in other incarnations and now house condos and shops. The mainly neoclassical buildings have ornamentation from the Victorian Gothic through the Art Deco eras. While the streets of the Historic Third Ward have few trees, the blocks are seasonally adorned with filled planters and flower baskets. Artwork and cultural centers are always within glancing distance. See photos below. HISTORY The Historic Third Ward has experienced many rebirths. What is known today as an upscale, trendy neighborhood by most Milwaukeeans, was something much different in the past. Early populations The major Indian nations that were settled in and around the Third Ward area when the Europeans arrived were the Menomonie and the Ho-Chunk. Near the Ward, on Jones Island and in the Menomonee Valley, were the Potawatomi. The fur traders followed the Indian settlements, and most of these were French, French Canadian, and Metis populations. One individual involved in the fur trade was Solomon Juneau, who would become Milwaukee’s first mayor. His wife was part Menomonie. He was also a large investor in real estate and was responsible for surveying much of the land in the Ward.

Walzer The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2017 Under the Supervision of Professor Rachel Buff This dissertation examines the importance of white ethnicity, and especially Germanness, in the “civic branding” and urban restructuring efforts of city officials, civic boosters, and business leaders in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the mid-to-late twentieth century. Scholars have increasingly identified the significant roles the “revival” of European ethnic identities played in maintaining white racial privilege in response to the Civil Rights Movement since the 1960s.

    Redevelopment in Milwaukee’s Menomonee Valley: What Worked and Why? ABOUT THE PUBLIC POLICY FORUM Milwaukee-based Public Policy Forum – which was established in 1913 as a local government watchdog – is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the effectiveness of government and the development of southeastern Wisconsin through objective research of regional public policy issues. PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This report was undertaken to provide citizens, policymakers, and business leaders in the Milwaukee area with a better understanding of the key factors that contributed to the Menomonee Valley’s recent redevelopment. We hope that policymakers and community leaders will use the report’s findings to inform discussions about economic development strategies that might be used to ensure the success of other major redevelopment projects in our region. Report authors would like to thank the leadership and staff of the City of Milwaukee’s Department of City Development (DCD) and the Redevelopment Authority of the City of Milwaukee (RACM) for patiently answering our questions and providing us with financial information about recent Menomonee Valley projects. We also would like to thank the many public and private sector individuals interviewed for this report for providing additional information and insight, and Eddee Daniel for providing many of the report’s photos, including the cover photo. Finally, we wish to thank Menomonee Valley Partners, Inc. for commissioning this research and for helping to fund it, as well as the Helen Bader Foundation for its grant to the Forum for economic and workforce development research, which also helped make this report possible.
